It feels like the Muppets are going through the motions here. The exposition, gags, and musical numbers play out mechanically. There's an occasionally cute moment or two, but Piggy's mistaken identity plot and Kermit and Fozzie playing twins are lame main plots. The high point is the Oscar-nominated "The First Time It Happens," which still isn't amazing, but it's such a lavish and absurd routine it's easy to give into.
